hey here's a website for downloading any video or image from any website.

I TRIED TO CONVERT A NON-FUNCTIONING VIDEO IN VEGAS AND IT FUCKED UP
< The Whippits is the Opposing Force/Foreign Power >
good read for teachers.
[…] When a person fails to begin a project that they care about, it’s typically due to either a) anxiety about their attempts not being “good enough” or b) confusion about what the first steps of the task are. Not laziness. In fact, procrastination is more likely when the task is meaningful and the individual cares about doing it well.
I’ve been yelling this for years
Hi yall, author of the piece here. Medium instituted a pay wall so here is a link to access it for free:
yk how hard it is for me to not correct misinformation on posts about sports on this website full of people who don't watch sports
women in soccer are not scoring more goals than the men's game on average because they are better at striking the ball, its because specialised goalkeeper training costs money and only recently have most teams started hiring gk coaches. ellie roebuck is among the first generation of english gks to have had a gk coach since she joined an academy.
both chess and motor racing are actually formally unsegregated, only one woman (judit polgar) has been ranked within the top 10 for chess players ever and she was raised by her psychologist father with her sisters as a chess prodigy. lella lombardi is the only woman to score any points in formula 1, ever. the creation of women's leagues is not entirely down to women being better than men and men being afraid, like stop lying and doing the athletes in these sports a disservice, they face significant barriers in access to sponsorship, training and misogyny from peers and fans to get there. you could bother with reading some scholarship on all of this or you could lie on the internet and count it as a win for feminism. like its fine to be disinterested in sports.
and not every sport is boxing for fucks sake. weight classes introduce extremely disordered eating regimes when athletes try to cut and drop into a lower class last minute bc of the advantages of training at higher weight class (getting to eat more food.) sorry but i would prefer that people about to play several hours of tennis do not starve themselves in the leadup to the game.
the sooner you understand that the right trying to 'protect women's sports' is not actually abt protecting anyone, the sooner you will understand that assimilation into the modern machine that is elite sports should never be the aim for women or men, cis or trans.
because no one in commercial sports is protected at all. we take children as young as usually 6, isolate them from their peers in age, construct notions of success for them that are debilitating to most people's sense of self worth, give coaches and parents license to abuse under the guise of training, valorise athletes who play through pain, encourage disordered eating, do not offer financial education and leave them prey to fraud, have no safety nets or pain management support for those whose injuries end their careers and/or leave them with lifelong chronic pain.

[AMV] Jon Arbuckle - You’re Gonna Go Far Kid
this is one of my favorite videos on the internet, and it kills me that the source has been silenced by youtube’s copyright system, so I’m putting it here!
I have seen a version of this on tumblr before, but the audio in that one is just a little bit off because that person edited it back in themselves
but today, I am proud to present the original video, sent to me by Crispy Crungy, who gave me permission to upload it here and share it with you all!
enjoy!
I love this description. It reads like a dedication speech for an art museum. Like we’re all witnesses to this video being interred in the Met. Preserving these things is important, and they really captured that.
